Tzatziki (Greek Cucumber-Yogurt Sauce) was pinched from <a href="http://greek.food.com/recipe/tzatziki-greek-cucumber-yogurt-sauce-433376" target="_blank">greek.food.com.</a>

"Another variation of tzatziki. This recipe is adapted from "The Olive and the Caper," a Greek cookbook that I checked out from the library. This is great over baked salmon, gyro-style sandwiches, as a sauce for vegetable fritters... etc. This is best made several hours (up to the night before) before serving...."
